Cancun,
Mexico is a tropical paradise with a crazy night life to go along with it. The Oasis
beach and Spa in Palm Beach along the coast is the ultimate place to stay and pamper yourself. Spend the day swimming in the crystal clear waters of the
Caribbean Sea and relax with a spa treatment before heading out to dance the night away.
Wows and Woes
Spas and resort hotels on white sand beaches usually cost a fortune but The Oasis Beach and Spa is one of the few places where you can be spoiled for less than $200.
The Oasis is a non-stop party place and that can take away from a guest's sense of relaxation.
Insider Tips
Ask for a free upgraded room at the top of the pyramid where you will have more privacy along with peace and quiet. They almost always comply, especially during weekdays and the off-season.
Author's Most Memorable Moment
The beaches in Cancun and the Mexican stretch of the Caribbean is indescribable. I took a Pina Colada into the water and walked to a sand bar. I laid on top of the sand while the water lapped at my sides. A local kid came by and brought me a fresh drink when he noticed my empty glass all for a tip that amounted to less than a quarter.
Bottom Line
The Oasis Beach and Spa is one of the most affordable luxury vacations that anyone can find. It's worth every penny if you travel at a safe time to Mexico.
